Basic authentication for Rest-services does not accept webservice-users
0
I have used basic authentication for a published Rest-services. When activating the Rest-service in the Swagger UI i have used a webservice-user to login. This results in the error: com.mendix.systemwideinterfaces.MendixRuntimeException: com.mendix.systemwideinterfaces.core.AuthenticationRuntimeException: Login FAILED: client login attempt for web service user 'ws3'. I expected logging in with a webservice-user would be allowed for Rest-services. Is this a bug or is my expectation wrong?

Sadly, the “IsWebservice” boolean is only used by the SOAP services.
REST webservices need to be regular user accounts, which is confusing as hell.
